    LONDON, October 11.
By advices from Cologne, dated the
6th in ft. it appears to be the intention of
the French General Cuftine, to pulh on
to Mayenee, Daimtladt, and Frankfort,
even to penetrate into the Hessian territo
ry. Tiie inhabitant* are all collecting
their most valuable effects. A yacht has
conveyed to Coblentz the Prussian mili
tary chelt, the aichives, chuich orna
ments, &c.
Letters from Manheim positively ft ate
that an at my of from 25 to 30,000 Ruf
fians will be before Landau, by the com
mencement of the month, and
that the firft column, conhfting of 6000
men, has already reached Bohemia.—
These troops will unquestionably be join
ed by the body of 25,000 Hungarians,
which is expedttd to reach the borders of
the Rhine within the above period.
By the above advices it appears that
the Princes of the Empire aie to furnilh
double contingencies, and that the King
of Pruflia has ordeied the levy of fredi
troops. In this cafe General Dumourier
has formed a very falfe opinion of the
sentiments of this monarch, whom, with
the whole of his army, he has sent back
- to Pruflia.
The disorder in the queen's feet is riot
occasioned folelv by corns, but by a fet
tled humour, which afFc&s the soles of
"both, and renders them so painfnl, and
afterwards tender as to prevent her ma
jelly (landing for any length of time with
out extreme pain. The faculty have all
agreed, that the humours (hould not be
repelled.
The governors of the bank of England
have agreed, that in future, all bank notes
lhall have a line engraven across them to
ftiew where they are to be cut, when sent
by poll ; and diie&ions will be given to
their clerks to write the number on each
lialf, and also the date of .month and year
on the left hand fide of the note, as re
commended by the pod-office.
Prince Potocki has given an entertain
ment at Warfavv, in which the health of
Catherine of Rnflla was drank, under a
discharge of 300 guns. The accompany
ment would have been more suitable to
the toalt, if every gun killed an hundred
thousand persons.
At a meeting, called by tlie Lord
Mayor of Dublin, at the Exchange there,
on the loth inft. a proposal was made by
his lordftu'p, that some public means
(hould be used to obtain subscriptions tor
the relief of the French emigrants in Ire
land. The motion was negatived almolt
unanimously, for though the company
were willing to promote private subscrip
tions for the fame purpose, they would
not, by any public measure, fecm to ex
press a censure of the French Revolution.
thf pru«sian retreat.
Before the disastrous entry of the
allied armies into Champagne, the
French were taught to dread the
immense and believed invincible
Cavalry of Hrulfia.—What is now
become of it ? The horse is the ten
derelt of all animals, and the in
clemency of a in a i shy foil and inces
sant rains, have killed them by hun
dreds, Cultine has burnt the forage
jieceflary for their support, and the
French Huflars bring numbers of
thiTin in daily—Vitry is the market
for their lale ; and there the pea
sants come to buy—and bespeak the
preference of Inch as the Light
Troops may acquire in their excur
fions
Thus, what with the neglecft of
iiccors, imprudence in their feed
ng, tlie determined enterprize of
he enemy, and, yet more than all
hefe, the inclemency of the season >
this perhaps unequalled allemblage
Df the fined troops in Europe is for

fore armies they have too lightly
derided, and leaders ihey feein in
judieioufly to have despised.
